I can’t believe I’m writing this, but welcome to the very last post of our travels! For our last couple of weeks, we met up with a close friend of mine and split our time between Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand, and Northern Thailand – road-tripping in the rainforest around Chiang Mai. Koh …

Time for a new continent! After over 7 months in Europe, we made it to Asian shores. Early on in our trip, we decided to make our way home via Thailand for a month, as it would give us a chance to see something completely different, help us stretch our budget, and as an added …
Well, onto the last leg of our time in Europe. By this point, we were pretty keen to get out into nature – we had spent a lot of time in cities, and both Charlotte and I have come to realise while we have loved the truly remarkable cities of Europe, in nature is where …
Whoops, there goes… two months since my last post. Things have been a little busy – it has been European summer after all, and we’ve recently moved continents! I sincerely apologise for this lapse in blog writing (feel like a politician writing this) and promise that I’ll catch up rapidly over the next week. After …

When we first started putting together the outline of what our trip around Europe would look like, one of the first (and really one of the only) adventures we locked in was the Camino De Santiago across the month of May. As someone who has done a few multi-day hikes, I’d first heard of the …
Rapid-fire posts for once, but there is a reason! With our Camino hike just about to start I wanted to make sure we were completely up to date – expecting a lot of long days of walking and limited blog writing time. So, what did we get up to during a week in Paris? Walking …
Time for another slightly overdue post! So, after a long overnight bus trip from London, we arrived in Edinburgh, Scotland. Charlotte had been particularly excited about this leg of our trip for a long time – whereas I hadn’t done much research at all and didn’t really know what to expect. So I was pleasantly …
Time while travelling is a crazy thing. Sometimes a week just blurs by. That was definitely the case for us this week… I started writing this post from a hostel in Edinburgh, after an overnight bus from London (which always seems like such a great idea to save time and money… until you arrive, having …

Things have been speeding up a little bit lately. We’ve been in 3 countries in a week or so, which has definitely made for a change of pace! Amsterdam What to say about Amsterdam? A city of contrasts – beautiful architecture and sights, and yet somehow also chock full of vice tourists. Marijuana was decriminalized …

Well, I guess falling behind on the blog was inevitable, but it has got a bit out of control at this point – sorry loyal readers! I’ll make up for it with two posts in the next week (I hope). So, let’s first journey back to almost a month ago, and our stay at the …
